Summary

This study tests an experimental eye drop called STSP-0902 for people with neurotrophic keratitis, a rare condition where the cornea loses sensation and can develop ulcers. The trial will enroll 48 adults with moderate to severe disease. Participants will receive either the active eye drop or a placebo, applied 3 or 6 times daily for 8 weeks. The main goals are to check safety and see if the drops help heal the cornea and improve eye sensation.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could provide a new treatment option to heal corneal damage and restore sensation in people with neurotrophic keratitis.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 48 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatment may not work better than placebo, and eye drops can cause irritation or other side effects.
